Fixing a 70s amplifier showed the change in electronics work
I spent last weekend fixing my dad's old stereo amplifier from the 70s. The inside had big, separate parts on a single board, easy to see and touch. I remembered how we used to repair things by just swapping out parts. Now, with tiny parts and glued cases, it's much harder. It feels like we've lost some of what was fun about fixing things. I wonder if others have seen this change in their work. Let's talk about how we handle these new challenges.
